If traveling, there are not many better cities to visit in New England than Bangor, Maine. It is one of the several key and large cities in the state. Being a small state, the population is not what you would expect for a city, having well below a hundred thousand inhabitants. However, it was mentioned in the hit song "King of the Road" by Roger Miller giving it some notoriety. It is situated in the center of the state towards the east and residents of the city like to point out it is the last real city before heading north towards Canada and the woods of Maine.
